"Sarah Tressler has an unmatched work ethic," states Raider Girls Soccer Coach Ms. Jami Hayden.

"She is a special player who pushes herself to be the best version of herself, and she deserves to be recognized for the work she puts in and standards she holds herself to. Her success is not an accident, and we as a program are so proud of all she has accomplished so far."

Sarah is the second All-American in program history and the first since 2016 (we see you, Elayna Grillakis '18)!

Why is CCHS Special?

"The community. Central gets together for football games, liturgies, and pep rallies, and we also unite for food drives, the Christmas Project, and volunteering."

Committed to Service

"Service work is very important to me, and I love giving back to my community."

"I have volunteered consistently with Lazarus House throughout my time at Central, and I have also volunteered with programs including TOPSoccer, Special Olympics, and the after-school program at St. Mary’s."

"Another service experience that I have enjoyed is organizing the Back-To-School food drive these past two years."

"A highlight of my community service at Central was the Blue Missions service trip to the Dominican Republic this past summer. Along with many other Central students and two faculty members, I helped to provide a rural community with access to clean water. This experience was an amazing opportunity to make an impact to those who need it most, and I am very grateful to have had the chance to go on this trip."
